Mr. and Mrs. Smith go to New England

Our last dinner without crayons, our last night without little bodies in our bed, and our last night remembering what it felt like to be sane.

Another Top Chef restaurant.

This is Tom C.'s Craft. We LOVE "Top Chef." Tom is our favorite and Todd has always wanted to meet him. I was hoping it would happen and sure enough Tom walked in. Although they didn't meet, Todd got to see him rush to the kitchen to cook for a private party.

This one was for Dylan.

Both of my Edwards in one picture. Be still my heart :)

Heather is in front of her Jersey Boys Marquee but with the glare it's a little hard to see.

Todd is trying to help KFC count the number of grilled chicken sold. The Ironic thing is he's actually counting the number of day before an offer from Wendy's came.

St. Patrick's cathedral.

Pretty Central park in the Fall. My sis lives a block from this. Lucky girl.

We rode the central park carousel and sang the Sound of Music tunes at the top of our lungs.

Heather said that this is where pretty much everyone gets proposed to. Todd didn't get the memo. ha ha.

This is my GQ hubby. Watch out.

huggy buggy

I'm not sure what I was doing here but Todd looks so skinny.

This was he first thing I did when i saw the huge rock.

Heather and her super cool NY apartment. They pretty much act like brother and sister.

Living in Louisville we know that our trees are beautiful. My mom asked me how it was possible that there could be more color anywhere compared to Louisville and this picture is my answer. I haven't adjusted light or color. Thanks Heavenly Father.

Mother Goose. Thank you for your nursery rhymes.

Alright, we had to try and go to Salem since it was days away from Halloween, but it was a little too touristy and not so historical. The museum was already closed and the people who were out were not exactly like the mom crew I normally roll with.

I found a few places to try my hand at taking cool pictures. This was right behind the church where Paul Revere hung a lantern for the whole one if by land, two if by sea thing.

This was inside the church. Each family in the congregation had their own cubicle. I would love that idea now. I could have just locked my kids inside and let the fruit snacks fly where they may.

This is the freedom trail that you follow throughout the historical parts of the city. It truly makes you grateful for the sacrifices people made to make this country what it is today. The most obvious part of the whole trip, tours, sites, etc. was that Heavenly Father wanted this country to be founded on freedom and religion. He directed so many great people in the birth of our nation. His hand was everywhere and in everything.

The church outside the major cemetery. I ran in to use the bathroom and Todd thought he would look around like it was a tourist spot. He walked upstairs and the next thing he knew he was in the middle of a sermon and people were handing him bags, papers, and pamphlets to read.

I didn't realize what a MAJOR role Samuel Adams played. Holy cow, he was such an amazing leader.

Todd still makes a face like a kid who is forced to get his picture taken.

Self Explanatory.

This is where the Declaration of Independence was secretly brought and read from a balcony for the first time to a huge crowd. It's also the site of the Boston massacre.

The cricket on the weather vane is actually six feet long and has been stolen once.

This was our guide, she actually had the cutest red shoes on.

My favorite. Chocolates on a freshly turned down bed. And yes, it's a good thing. Thanks, Mr. Marriott!

Todd trying to lift the Breakers. Are you shocked?

This is my in motion shot.

Another model pose.

I'm learning with my camera. The detail was so cool and spooky at the same time.

I would love to have been at a party in the roaring twenties at this place.
